How do you get a rescue email without knowing your security questions

Hey, So I know this sounds pretty stupid at first, but let me explain a bit; I made my apple Id on my I Pod Touch, and it asked me to make security questions (in which I made two, this is where the "fun" begins), however it didn't ask me to make a rescue email as that was going to just be my E-mail account and the link to change the security passwords isn't appearing, and as such I now am stuck: with two security questions that I don't remember the answers too and I don't have the option to send the info I need to my e-mail account, If you can help me; that would be apreciated

iPod touch, iOS 3.0.1

These are telephone numbers for contacting Apple Support in your country.

Apple ID- Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security. Select

the appropriate country and call. Ask to speak to the Account Security Team.

4. Account security issues almost always require you to speak directly to an

Apple representative to securely establish your identity as the account holder.

You can set it up so that Apple calls you, either immediately or at a time

convenient to you.

1. Go to www.apple.com/support.

2. Choose Contact Support and click Contact Us.

3. Choose Other Apple ID Topics and choose the appropriate topic for

your issue.

4. Follow the onscreen instructions.

Note: If you have already forgotten your security questions, then you cannot

set up a rescue email address in order to reset them. You must set up

the rescue email address beforehand.

Your Apple ID: Manage My Apple ID.
